We enter your sacred prayer space with longings in our soul. We hear voices of our soul’s longing when we wake in the night. We hear them during the quiet times in the day. We hear them now, as the voices cry to Life-giving Spirit. Thank you for creating this space of such deep intimacy, where the veil is so thin between our souls and Life-giving Spirit, that we can participate freely in your mystery.
Quiet our minds so we will have pure thoughts. Be in our eyes and ears so we will see and hear you all around us. Press your lips to our ears and remind us of your never-ending love for us and of our place in your family tree.
Loving Divine Family,
Your ways are perfect. Your plan is made perfect through the gift of Jesus Christ. We reflect on the wonders you have set in motion. The idea that you chose us before the creation of the world is so marvelous. We feel overcome and fully washed by your love. All things in creation praise you for your perfect love.
With joyful hearts we join with creation and heavenly beings to praise you, LORD. You care for us and raise us up from the rubble. You are our God, and we are your people. We are so blessed.
Loving Divine Family,
We enter your sacred prayer space seeking your nourishing, life-giving water. You draw near to us, and your light reveals a wonderful landscape, beyond description. We find ourselves within your creation. You tell us that we may roam freely, but only with you will we remain nourished and fruitful.
I feel your peace and have faith today, Loving Jesus, and thank you for…
You have placed us on this good path and prepared the way for us. We will not slip or stumble, but are blessed through your loving faithfulness to us. Let us encourage each other as we journey and tell others of your goodness.
